Slope stability analysis is vital to preventing slope failures in a variety of engineering applications including landfill design, roads, dams and embankments, to name a few. Proper analysis anticipates both natural and manmade slopes and failure of foundations and retaining walls. This blog covers the necessity of slope stability analysis, how to conduct the analysis and the role of ...

Groundwater investigations, contaminated/industrial sites, landfill and regulatory compliance are all ideal areas for environmental consultants and site managers, specializing in groundwater monitoring and assessment, to use environmental data management software. A successful groundwater ...

ESdat environmental data management software has been used to manage and report on large datasets generated from an investigation of groundwater contamination on an industrial facility in Adelaide. ESdat was used in managing site data and the maintenance of conceptual model and time series outputs at a complex site over an extended period. Leakages of TCE and the subsequent ...

Groundwater age is an important water property used as an indicator of groundwater quality. There have been no sufficient data and measurements underground, and that problem has been mitigated by using direct simulation of groundwater age. This paper has been motivated by the work of Daniel J. Goode, defining a rather different approach. A numerical model has been developed, using the Lagrangian ...

The OpenMI standard defines an interface that allows time-dependent models to exchange data at runtime. The migration of a flow simulation programme to OpenMI compliance usually requires changes in the source code or even a reorganisation of the programme sequence. Users of commercial flow simulation programmes depend on the software producer if they want to couple their models according to the ...

There is a well-known fable about a wood cutter who was hired by a timber merchant to cut down trees. This well sought-after job paid well and had excellent working conditions. The wood cutter wanted to succeed in his new job so the first day he worked hard and cut down 18 trees. Determined to do even better on the second day, the wood cutter tried harder but only cut down 15 trees. Day after day ...

On cessation of the 2001 outbreak of Foot and Mouth Disease, the Environment Agency in the North West Region wished to review the overall significance of the authorised farm burials of pyre ash and carcasses to the groundwater resources of the Region. ESI was commisioned to develop a standard methodology and software tool that might be used for the following tasks: Derivation of ...

The Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs funded a project aimed at developing tools for water management in the Bekaa valley, Lebanon. The Lebanese Ministry of Energy and Water implemented the project, supported by the University of Milan Department of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (DISAA). The geologic framework consists of a cretacean-eocean carbonatic structure, crossed by a fracture ...

Project name Digital groundwater measuring network Doetinchem council Client Doetinchem council Country The Netherlands Background and objective In the framework of the Municipal Water Management Act (Wet gemeentelijke watertaken) in combination with the water framework directive, Doetinchem ...

Abstract: The Monitoring and Remediation Optimization System (MAROS) software has been developed by the Tech Transfer Division of the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence (AFCEE) to provide site managers a strategy for formulating appropriate long-term groundwater monitoring programs that can be implemented at lower costs. The MAROS software optimizes a site-specific monitoring program ...

Efficient management of the large monitoring data set is paramount given licence conditions imposed on the mine. Confidence in the data accuracy is crucial in forming the basis for interpretation and subsequent operational decisions. MMG has adopted an Environmental Data Management System (EDMS) comprising the following ‘off-the-shelf’ components produced and supplied by Earth Science ...

Peer-reviewed guidance documents for the statistical analysis of ground-water monitoring data have been available for years, from the US EPA and from other bodies such as state Departments of Environmental Quality and ASTM. The truth, however, is that many of the statistical requirements are not being enforced by state regulators, with the result that statistics — where performed at all ...

8. Mathematical algorithms The application uses two different mathematical models: Buoyant jet model or Stratified model. The Buoyant model is ideal for pollutant discharges located in the proximities of the coast and in rivers, (using little depth). This model is based on a time-independent Gaussian equation which simulates the pollutant dispersion in the water. The Stratified ...

To assist in the design of enhanced reductive dechlorination systems for in situ remediation of chlorinated solvent source zones, the software BUCHLORAC (BUffering of deCHLORination ACidity) was developed to predict the amount of buffer required to maintain the groundwater pH in a DNAPL treatment zone within the optimal range for dechlorinating bacteria. Reductive dechlorination is an acidforming ...

Reductive ...

Realistic groundwater flow and transport models have greater use in understanding, predicting and managing groundwater systems in water–scarce and polluted areas. In this study, micro–level flow and transport models were developed, using the Visual MODFLOW software, for the highly polluted Ambur sub–basin, Tamil Nadu for the purpose of predicting pollution migration in the next 50 years and ...

Forecasting the groundwater level (GWL) of an aquifer is one of the most important tasks in hydrogeology. Such forecasts prove vital to develop better exploitation strategies of water resources and to carry up–to–date groundwater monitoring. In this paper, an artificial neural network (ANN)–based approach, which was based on linear regression model, is presented to simulate and predict both ...
